Last week I really "pushed it" and got too aggressive with my shaves. This led to bumps and ingrown hairs. I took off 3 days and went very gentle today. Just trying to get a comfy shave. The result was an effortless BBS shave. I barely felt the a/s burn. Of course, Robert's amazing razor may have had something to do with it. :w
Great Shave!!!

The Genco is there. I sometimes wonder why I bother with anything after the Norton 8K. This razor gave me a helluva shave.
The Bengall and Revisor need a little more work - close though.

Genco and Revisor are golden. The Bengall needs a little more work. I had been losing hope about the ability of my Yellow to finish. Today, I did about 75 passes with just water on the Revisor. The edge is now so there! :y 'Bout time! Great shave and a wonderful limey day.
